Do death battle fans just not have standards?

So everyone probably knows about the asura vs kratos fight, terrible scarling as usual, kratos wanked to hell to somehow be stronger than asura despite not having a single feat that puts him above even early game asura, but lets put all that aside and talk about how fucking bad the fight itself was.

i could forgive the somewhat stilted animation and lack of impact if the choreography was good but barring a few moments here and there it's extremely disappointing even as someone who hasn't watched death battle in years. every phase of the fight is just kratos no selling asuras attacks and one shotting each of his forms, so no matter how much ben singer says they weren't "picking on the little guy" i can't help but think someone on the team is just a huge kratos stan and pushed for him to dominate the fight, regardless of how it would effect quality. they've had much more even fights between characters with drastically different stats before so i can't see how they couldn't manage it here. i get they probably wanted to speedrun asuras forms to show them all, but considering that about 2 or so minutes of the animation are devoted to "story" with absolutely no action so they can pretend they're good writers or something that's a pretty poor excuse. even other battles that i thought had a stupid outcome were decent at least but this one pretty much sucked and i'm confused by death battle fans saying the fight was "peak". is the sole determining factor of a good fight that the character people like most wins?
